The Eagles will tee off at 12:10 pm on Tuesday, May 17 with fellow National qualifying teams Morningside (Iowa) and St. Ambrose (Iowa).

At-large teams were determined using the final regular-season Coaches' Top 25 Poll released yesterday

To receive an individual automatic berth, the conference medalist must be from a team who did not win the conference team title, or be an All-Tournament Team honoree from the previous year's national championships that did not qualify otherwise. To earn an at-large individual berth, the selection is determined by the NAIA Men's Golf Executive Committee.

The Eagles are led by 2022 Heart Medalist and Men's Golfer of the Year, Matias Baccola and fellow Heart First Team All-Conference performers, Tomas Lopez Mazzalay, Tiago Swart, Aaron Teece.
